Book Synopsis The Religious Art of Pablo Picasso by : Jane Dillenberger
Download or read book The Religious Art of Pablo Picasso written by Jane Dillenberger and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-04-17 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first critical examination of Pablo Picasso's use of religious imagery and the religious import of many of his works with secular subject matter. Though Picasso was an avowed atheist, his work employs spiritual themesÑand, often, traditional religious iconography. In five engagingly written, accessible chapters, Jane Daggett Dillenberger and John Handley address Picasso's cryptic 1930 painting of the Crucifixion; the artist's early life in the Catholic church; elements of transcendence in Guernica; Picasso's later, fraught relationship with the church, which commissioned him in the 1950s to paint murals for the Temple of Peace chapel in France; and the centrality of religious themes and imagery in bullfighting, the subject of countless Picasso drawings and paintings.

Book Synopsis The Sculptures of Picasso by : Pablo Picasso
Download or read book The Sculptures of Picasso written by Pablo Picasso and published by Assouline Books & Gifts. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly luxurious publication presents the sculptures of Picasso photographed by Brassaï, one of the most important photographers of the twentieth century. An authentic text written for this work in 1948 by Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, the former art dealer of Picasso, is also included. Brassaï met Picasso in 1932 when he was commissioned to take a series of pictures of the artist's studio and of some plaster sculptures done at Boisgeloup for the review Minotaure. Several years later he was again contacted to photograph Picasso's work for the first book published on the subject of the artist's sculptures. Hence, between 1932 and 1946, Brassaï photographed all of Picasso's sculpted works. This long-term working relationship led to a fruitful exchange between the two artists on the respective nature of photography and sculpture, which is reflected in this volume. The Sculptures of Picasso is an atypical vision of lesser known works by Picasso. Indeed, the medium used to depict the sculptures is nearly as unsettling as the objects themselves, and the confusion is emphasized by the contrast between flatness and fullness. An art dealer, Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler became a good friend of Picasso's in 1907 when he first visited the artist's studio. Picasso actually painted a now famous portrait of Kahnweiler in 1910. 70 illustrations

Book Synopsis Picasso's Concrete Sculptures by : Sally H. Fairweather
Download or read book Picasso's Concrete Sculptures written by Sally H. Fairweather and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picasso's concrete sculptures. When Pablo Picasso first learned of the Betograve Process for pouring and engraving concrete, he "jumped out of his chair as if he had sat on a pin. He wax so excited .... [His] lightning eye and intuitive intelligence instantly recognized the creative uses that he might be able to make of this new technique." Indeed, Picasso's collaboration with Norwegian artist Carl Nesjar during the next fifteen years led to a series of exuberant public sculptures in Spain, France, Sweden, Norway, Holland, Israel, and the United States (New York, Princeton, Cambridge, and Rolling Meadows, near Chicago). Picasso's Concrete Sculptures is a comprehensive history of that collaboration, from the preparation and selection of marquettes, theough all the stages of approval, to actual construction and engraving. Author Sally Fairweather is a prominent Chicago art dealer who was instrumental in the realization there of the monumental Picasso concrete sculpture, The Bather, and she subsequently undertook the prodigious task of researching and writing this first published study of the entire series of sculptures. Nearly 100 plates -- many in full color -- illustrate every one of these majestic works in its final setting, as well as showing the maquettes on which they were based, the photographs signed by Picasso to document his approval, step-by-step shots of construction in progress, and more. This volume also includes a bibliography and index and a fully documented catalogue raisonne of all the Picasso-Nesjar works in concrete, including some not yet erected. Picasso's Concrete Sculptures is an indispensable addition to the literature on this greatest of modern masters, filling an important gap in his knowledge of his oeuvre"-- Front flap.

Book excerpt: A wildly entertaining and surprisingly educational dive into art history as you've never seen it before, from the host of the beloved ArtCurious podcast We're all familiar with the works of Claude Monet, thanks in no small part to the ubiquitous reproductions of his water lilies on umbrellas, handbags, scarves, and dorm-room posters. But did you also know that Monet and his cohort were trailblazing rebels whose works were originally deemed unbelievably ugly and vulgar? And while you probably know the tale of Vincent van Gogh's suicide, you may not be aware that there's pretty compelling evidence that the artist didn't die by his own hand but was accidentally killed--or even murdered. Or how about the fact that one of Andy Warhol's most enduring legacies involves Caroline Kennedy's moldy birthday cake and a collection of toenail clippings? ArtCurious is a colorful look at the world of art history, revealing some of the strangest, funniest, and most fascinating stories behind the world's great artists and masterpieces. Through these and other incredible, weird, and wonderful tales, ArtCurious presents an engaging look at why art history is, and continues to be, a riveting and relevant world to explore.

Book Synopsis Picasso and the Painting That Shocked the World by : Miles J. Unger
Download or read book Picasso and the Painting That Shocked the World written by Miles J. Unger and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of The Christian Science Monitor’s Best Nonfiction Books of 2018 “An engrossing read…a historically and psychologically rich account of the young Picasso and his coteries in Barcelona and Paris” (The Washington Post) and how he achieved his breakthrough and revolutionized modern art through his masterpiece, Les Demoiselles d’Avignon. In 1900, eighteen-year-old Pablo Picasso journeyed from Barcelona to Paris, the glittering capital of the art world. For the next several years he endured poverty and neglect before emerging as the leader of a bohemian band of painters, sculptors, and poets. Here he met his first true love and enjoyed his first taste of fame. Decades later Picasso would look back on these years as the happiest of his long life. Recognition came first from the avant-garde, then from daring collectors like Leo and Gertrude Stein. In 1907, Picasso began the vast, disturbing masterpiece known as Les Demoiselles d’Avignon. Inspired by the painting of Paul Cézanne and the inventions of African and tribal sculpture, Picasso created a work that captured the disorienting experience of modernity itself. The painting proved so shocking that even his friends assumed he’d gone mad, but over the months and years it exerted an ever greater fascination on the most advanced painters and sculptors, ultimately laying the foundation for the most innovative century in the history of art. In Picasso and the Painting That Shocked the World, Miles J. Unger “combines the personal story of Picasso’s early years in Paris—his friendships, his romances, his great ambition, his fears—with the larger story of modernism and the avant-garde” (The Christian Science Monitor). This is the story of an artistic genius with a singular creative gift. It is “riveting…This engrossing book chronicles with precision and enthusiasm a painting with lasting impact in today’s art world” (Publishers Weekly, starred review), all of it played out against the backdrop of the world’s most captivating city.

Book excerpt: Throughout an ever-shifting body of work, David Maljkovi? returns to ?the question of form,? asking how considerations of form itself might illuminate the ebb and flow of ideologies, for example, or the overlaying of past, present, and future. While embracing a wide range of media?including photography, painting, video, sculpture, and various hybrids?the Croatian artist has developed distinctive methods of incorporating, and refiguring, his own earlier works in new installations.0Along with every exhibition, Maljkovicc translates his work into the form of a book, which becomes another lively medium for the artist. For 'Also on View', he collaborated with designer Toni Uroda to channel the queries of his solo exhibition at the Renaissance Society, which brought together elements from different projects to create a new presentation tailored to the architectural space. The publication features a dynamic array of images, a rendition of the artist talk Maljkovic? delivered on opening night, and an essay by curator Karsten Lund.00Exhibition: The Renaissance Society, Chicago, USA (09.02-07.04.2019).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive volume examines the little-known relationship—both artistic and personal—between two of the greatest avant-garde artists of the twentieth century. Pablo Picasso and Alberto Giacometti, each in their own way, deeply disrupted existing artistic codes and pushed the barriers of established aesthetic canons in the domains of painting and sculpture. This tome reveals their friendship and the little-known artistic dialogue between them on the subjects and questions central to their work. Richly illustrated, this volume establishes clear correlations in their artistic production and provides new insight into the Picasso and Giacometti ateliers through incisive essays from art historians, which draw on previously unpublished documents. An anthology of historical texts offers the intimate perspective of the master artists’ contemporaries including Man Ray, whose descriptions reveal fascinating portraits of the characters and working habits of his two friends.
